Huo Hongying nodded and saw that the snow on her body had melted away and her clothes were indeed a lot wet, so she went back to the house.

Liu Jinlian wanted to help her daughter-in-law kill the chickens, but was stopped by Old Shen. He said with a gloomy look, "What nonsense are you talking about? Could it be that you saw Daya and the others pushing the child into the river?"

"I..." Liu Jinlian faltered with a guilty conscience.

"Hmph!" Old Shen snorted coldly and said, "I'm telling you, never talk nonsense like this again, or I'll divorce you!"

"I..." Liu Jinlian lowered her head in grievance.

Sure enough, Li Zheng came not long after, asked about the situation of the two boys, and then told the old couple what the children had seen.

"Da Ya and Er Ya's family saved your grandson. If you are not grateful, forget it. Remember not to cause trouble for others. Your Jianren and Jianhuo have to take the imperial examination. In this case, you must also cherish your reputation."

"What Tie Zhu said is that your aunt and I wanted to bring some eggs to send over, but as you know, the two babies got sick, and the family was in trouble.

Those two girls bought a lot of things a few days ago, so I guess they still have some money in their hands! We won't join in the fun anymore. "Old Shen rubbed his hands, but what he said was very shameless.

Li Zheng naturally knew their temperament, so he didn't expect anything. As long as they didn't cause trouble for Daya and his family, he would turn a blind eye.

Seeing that the old couple seemed sensible, Li Zheng didn't pursue the matter any further and left the Shen family with a wave. He had been very busy recently. If his wife hadn't said that the lives of the two children were at stake, he wouldn't have come to visit.

Because of Li Zheng's intervention, the life of Shen Nan's family finally returned to peace a little, but the life of Liu Jinlian's family became more and more miserable. It was probably retribution!

At this time, in the yard of the old Shen family, Shen Jianren angrily smashed the porcelain bowl containing eggs in sugar water in his hand, and yelled at Liu Jinlian: "I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat, buy it for me quickly."

Liu Jinlian looked helpless, slapping her legs and crying: "Oh, my dear grandson, how can grandma still have money to buy meat? You have spent so much money on medicine recently, and grandma really can't get any money. ”

"I don't care. If you don't buy me meat, I will starve myself to death and leave you with no grandchildren." Shen Jianren said, picking up pieces on the ground again, preparing to cut his wrists.

Liu Jinlian was so distressed that she hurriedly stopped him: "Okay, okay, stop making trouble, grandma will buy you meat right now. As long as my dear grandson likes it, grandma can buy as much meat as she likes."

"Hurry up and buy it, I'll wait." Shen Jianren urged with a cold face, as if he would not give up until he had enough to eat.

"Hey, OK, OK, grandma will go buy it now." Liu Jinlian tightened the cloth bag she had sewn on the inside of her cotton-padded coat. There were still a dozen copper coins left in it, and she estimated that she could only buy one pound of meat.

Looking at her grandson's face, she gritted her teeth and went into the house to get more than 30 copper coins, planning to buy a few more kilograms of fat meat to feed her grandson.

The two brothers finally got better after they fell into the water that day. Liu Jinlian has been serving him delicious food and drinks these days, for fear that something might happen to his grandson.

Although Old Shen felt sorry for his grandson, he was still furious when he saw his old lady secretly taking away the coins she had saved to buy new year's goods. When Liu Jinlian was about to take the last step out of the yard, he stopped her: "Stop! Come back."

Liu Jinlian was startled, stopped, and looked at her old man with a worried expression.

Old Shen angrily accused: "Why are you so confused? How much food have these two boys hoarded at home these days? Good eggs are thrown away at will. It's not like the family has gold and silver. After so much food, why are you still there?" What are you doing to spoil them?"

"Also, who asked you to take the money out? It was for our family to buy New Year gifts. Without my permission, you can't take our family's copper coins in the future."

"It's not that serious." Liu Jinlian argued in a low voice, "Besides, it's just buying a few kilograms of meat. I feel sorry for my children. If I don't buy meat for them, how will they have the energy to study for the exam?"

"Feeling sorry for the children? Just let them knock over the eggs that are so raw? If you want to eat meat, eat meat. If he wants to eat bear paws someday, go and get them for him. I think you can get used to it. When the time comes, You will know that you regret it." Old Shen was so angry that his nose was filled with smoke, and he threw away his hands.

Liu Jinlian looked unconvinced, but she only dared to whisper behind her back.

She knew that her old man was right. She felt sorry for her two grandchildren, but how could there be parents and grandparents in this world who didn't pamper their children and grandchildren? So even though she knew that these two dolls were not fuel-efficient lamps, she still couldn't bear to scold them.

It's just a few kilograms of meat. The money comes from her private money, and the old man does the same.

Liu Jinlian thought like this and looked up to see her two eldest grandsons, but unexpectedly saw the hatred shining in their eyes, which frightened her.

"You two, what's going on? Why are you looking at grandma like that?"

Shen Jianren sneered and said, "Grandma, if you don't have any money, just tell me. Why do you want to take the money from home? It belongs to our two brothers. What do you use it for?"

"That's right, that's right. All the money in the family will be reserved for us brothers in the future. Why did you take it?"

"I'm not... buying meat for you." Liu Jinlian was choked to the point of speechlessness. She never expected that her beloved grandson would say this.

"Haha!" Shen Jianhuo sneered, "I think Grandma is getting better and better at returning home. Haven't you heard that Sanwa and his family bought a whole pig in the village?"

"That's right, grandma won't ask for some? You are their grandma, how dare they not give it to you." Shen Jianren sneered.

"No, I, I...I don't want it." When Liu Jinlian thought that she would go to the house with a shy face and be criticized by people in the same village the next day, she suddenly became flustered and her old face turned red.

She wanted to, but she didn't dare to go. Besides, the old man had just told her to behave herself. If she was divorced after she was over fifty, she would really be ashamed and angry.

"If grandma doesn't dare to ask for it, then what are you going to do with our money?" Shen Jianren looked at her hand that was holding the copper coins coldly.

"Where is your money? This is the money left by Da Ya and his parents." Liu Jinlian was choked by her two grandsons who she always loved. She was speechless for a moment and had to use this excuse.

"Hmph, do you think my brother and I are still as stupid as our second wife and let you lie to us?" Shen Jianren said sarcastically, "You spent all the money you had back then, and what you have now is all given to you by my parents."
